Dead Leaves

by Gristle McThornbody

TREE-t yourself to some WTF

I’ve watched Dead Leaves 4.67 times, and you know what, I still don’t know what the hell’s going on. Allegedly, the plot revolves around the main characters, Pandy, who has a large red panda-like marking over right eye, and Retro who has a CRT television for a head, whose quest in the 52 minutes of this in-yo-face wild ride of an animu is to find out who they are after mysteriously waking up naked in the outskirts of the city. In order to do this, they have to explode quite a lot of things, get arrested and then find the answers to their questions on their moon prison.

For those of you that still need to take Weeaboo 102, “moé” is a particular sort of cuteness in female characters that fulfils a certain youthful appearance, as well as a certain vulnerability in their personality.   Now, as a result of more than a decade of continuous “improvement” to the moé concept, there is at least one dedicated “moéblob” in virtually all new anime, which generally combines dishpan eyes and near-total incompetence in an attempt to appeal to the unsaid desire of all otaku to “rescue” their mate.

Golden Boy is a Face-Full of Fun!

Golden Boy is the perfect anime for perverts, just like you.  It’s positively filled to the brim with crude sexual humour that will make other sex comedies look charming by comparison.  After all, this sex humour isn’t afraid to dive right into the toilet, quite literally. Continue reading
